Abstract

A container carrier and manufacturing method therefore are provided. The container carrier includes an integrally molded body with a graspable loop and a plurality of annular structures connected by bridges. The graspable loop is configured to extend above a top surface of the container carrier in an unbiased configuration to provide an easily graspable carrying mechanism. Each annular structure includes a side wall formed of side wall portions separated by side wall voids and a top surface. Flanges are positioned at the bottom of each side wall void to collectively engage the containers. The flanges are configured to project inwardly and orient upwardly at an angle so as to flex when accepting or releasing a container. The top surfaces of the annular structures include notched voids continuous with respective side wall voids such that the flanges positioned at the bottoms of the side wall voids are accommodated by the notched voids in the top surface of a second, same-shaped container carrier when stacked to thereby improve stacking efficiency.
